It's true.



So, we spent approximately 12 hours at the Dizzney parks yesterday - 14 if you count dinner at Downtown Dizzney. We started at the Whatever studios (used to be MGM, but they renamed it) sometime along the afternoon tiki got whiney to get to see Stitch's Great Escape. We thought there couldn't possibly be much more merch, but....



WE WUZ WRONG!!!!



Oh, yes. And THEN Mr. Tiki dragged our wailing butt over to Main Street, where there was yet more merch. YES!! And, we don't even KNOW what all we got, since some of it was a SOOPER SEKRIT BIRTHDAY PRESENT from Mr. Tiks himself (oh yes!), and, he had it sent, so tiki won't break it on the way back, so we won't see for two weeks. Ooo, the pain! Naughty Stitchie husband....



As for The Ride, well, it's darned awful cute. If you are as obsessive about a certain blue character as tiki, it's kind of nirvana-ish, as it comprises about 10 minutes of close encounters with a very cute animatronic Stitch, and various Stitchie teasing and blowing bad alien breath at you.



To be quite honest, for most adult persons, the ride seems like it would be, well, BORING. And for littler kids, quite possibly too scary.



Which means the ride was designed for more or less one person in the world. Who is tiki. Yay, we rock!

(BTW, the last three pix are by Mr. Tiks, they're a cool Stitchie mural above the Stitchie shop. We are so blissed.)

Mrs. Tikistitch I blame you for making me want to go to orlando instead of work :(. It has been like 2 years since I last went to Disney (that's a long time, considering I live in Miami), I went once to see stitch and that's it and did not have money to buy stuff (I was not working). TAKE ME PLEASE TAKE ME!!!

BTW, though you would like this squiddy stuff

Ooooo! I was at the park November and I don't remember that display of Stitch merchandise! I want the Stitch in the tube!!!

I thought of you when I did Stitch's Great Escape. Bad alien breathe and all. (The moist breathe was a "nice" touch.) I loved it. And no, it was designed with two people in mind: tiki and me!

BTW, the ride that freaked me out the most was Space Mountain. And not for the reason you might suspect. It's a rollercoaster in the dark that's supposed to simulate space flight. Except it's still a rollercoster. And Nita's night vision is, well, very good. Unlike most vistors, I would have done better if I didn't see so well in the dark. That way I wouldn't have known how high it was, where the other cars were, etc. it was the only ride I went on that I staggered away from.

Don't underestimate my Stitch loving and obsession, please... This ride sounds awesome, I'd probably squee all the way through ;-) And for your info, I'm so Stitch obsessive that I've bought Stitch clothing for Baby Margaux in Japan. She's going to wear a bomber jacket with our fluffy alien with matching Stitch paw shoes...
